Can I just say that the community spirit engendered on here after we reached the final and the efforts made by various members to help others out has been lovely to see. As a far wiser man than me once said on a similar matter "It generates a warmth around the ground that augurs well for mankind, and that's what life's about."

"All the Villa, stick together"  Old school :)

Unfortunately, I don’t even have the comfort of my own home or local pub to watch the final, because post-game I have to see a mate’s record launch gig.

So I’m looking for “proper” pubs in the Shoreditch area. Not a chance.

I'm block 133, Row 33.  Was anyone there for The Semi Final with any pictures to share?  I was block125 and yes they where fantastic seats.

Looking forward to being behind the goal this time though. 

We were in Block 134 , row 30 for the semi . Can honestly say they were the best seats I have ever had at wembley (old or new stadium).

Superb.  Can't wait now.

The chap I spoke to just told me that reassigning old games is not something they do. Unless someone has a Southampton reference they could assign me, i'm not going. They'll also sell out today, he says.

That would be brilliant Doc, but isn't it already assigned to you?

Not to worry. One thing this has taught me is that there are some superb people in the world who do some truly selfless things. I hope we get the win a bunch of fans like ours deserves.

ROW 43 - 2nd from back row of lower tier, just under the roof - view of pitch brilliant, view of Holte Enders in the Sky poor.

At the semi final we had some great people sat (stood) in our area, my son had two well refreshed blokes next to him and I asked if he wanted to swap seats but he said he was fine. They were great with him, hugging him and high fiving him when the goals went in and at the final whistle, he loved it. As we all left everybody was shaking hands and hugging, they were a fine set of people, made me even prouder to be a Villa supporter.

I have a Southampton ticket sat on my client ref that hasn't been assigned to anyone if that helps. My client ref has been used to buy tickets for the Final but I bought 2 tickets for Southampton and not assigned the second to anyone.
